The 6500m classic carries extra significance as Vin, who passed away recently, was a long-standing and generous sponsor of the Bendigo Athletics Club.
Race-wise, the hot favourite for the race win is Shepparton’s Josh Sait.
The talented athlete won the BAC club championship three years in a row, until injury halted his charge to a fifth last year.
Sait appears to be reclaiming his previous best form, which will take some stopping.
Others to watch include Kyall Britten and Rhonda Shultz.
Racing begins with the children’s 1000m at 10am.
The senior race will start at 10.30am.
